Yes he killed two franchises at once, but both of them had their time and were essentially already dead. Alien 3 and Alien: Resurrection basically said, "hay oops guess Aliens was the pinnacle of me!" and Predator 2 wasn't even for real. (Even still, Jurassic Park thought that the next step up from a jungle was a city even though I recall the city being fairly deserted in either movie). I mean, you can't tarnish the reputation of Alien or Aliens or Predator with Alien vs Predator because those films stand on their own. They don't even know each other.
Uwe Boll on the other hand takes games and wipes his ass with them. It's not the same. Surely the games stand on their own, but games have a bad enough reputation as it is. Don't need anymore people to think, "Man, video games must be dumb shit." And yes, Resident Evil and Resident Evil: apocalypse was dumb shit but they're C- grade. Any Uwe Boll movie is an automatic F minus minus. Those Sci-Fi Channel "original" movies have better production values.
If you watch Alien vs Predator and think, "man, the originals must be dumb shit" then Jesus will descend from the heavens and just kick you right in the nuts, right in front of everyone.
There's nowhere I can't reach.
